Fresh Finds: Chella Highlighter Pencil

What it is: Chella Highlighter PencilWhat they say: This fresh and pretty neutral pencil will brighten and visibly lift your eyes when lightly applied on the brow bone, dark circles, blemishes and red spots.In addition, this multi-purpose pencil can be used to brighten and “open” the eye area by applying to the water line and inner corners of the eye. Applying a thin, blended line down the center of the nose creates the illusion of a thinner nose.Perfect for highlighting a beautiful smile by eliminating dark shadows and preventing lipstick spread by applying to the Cupid ’s bow and along the lip line. So many uses in just one perfect pencil!How to use: Draw a line under the brow bone with this creamy pencil and then pat gently into place using your 3rd (“ring”) finger.What I think: I've always had pretty prominent brows, so when I received this highlighter pencil in my Ipsy bag (they've been coming out in Birchboxes recently, too), I honestly didn't think a little highlighter could make them and my eyes look any different, let alone better. Boy, was I wrong.I quickly swipe under cleaned up brows and it's like my eyes are suddenly a little brighter, I look a little more awake, and those "arches" (haha, not really, my brows are pretty straight) are a little more prominent giving the illusion of a well arched brow.Huh... who knew!I've only used the highlight under my brows, but as their description states, there's a ton of other uses for it -- to slim your nose, open up your eyes, give the appearance of higher cheekbones, play up a cupids bow, etc.Buy it online:Dermstore $18 for one pencilWhat do you think about this product?
